mauserme Posted April 16, 2015 at 07:11 PM Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 at 07:11 PM The bill is about more than just pie. Illinois is, apparently, the pumpkin capital of the world. There is some thought that promoting pumpkins in the state will help with Illinois tourism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
